5 Best Cell Phones For Students – Cell Phone In School

Over years, cell phone technology has been changing, we have advanced from the old normal cell phones and now we use smart cell phones. I remember when Apple had just released the Ipad, to me it seemed wired because of its size, but now you find many studentsowning an ipad. When it comes to learning, students use these ipads and smart phones for online mobile learning. Unlike computers or laptops, cell phones are slim and easy to carry. So now days most mobile phone manufactures are embedding computer functions in most cell phones. Most schools allow their students to go with cell phones to schools, but they have put a limit to when and what to use those cell phones for. Academically, cell phones can make learning more mobile and personal. Students and teachers can join an educational discussion while at school using cell phones.

In actual sense, cell phones are not bad, but the way some students use them while at school is what can makes them seem bad for education. For example, if a student starts tweeting non academic material while at school or in the classroom, this will cause distraction to this student which might result into exam failure. But on the other hand, the same cell phone can be used to join an educationaldiscussion on twitter with other fellow students on the campus or from other schools.

New advanced cell phones have big storage which can accommodate digital books, and they can as well access internet, which helps students make online research or use online educational applications like Library Apps, Online academic platforms, social networks and much more.
